Someone built their own self-hosted jukebox with NFC cards so their 2 year old daughter could play music, free from other products' locked ecosystem. It plugs straight into Navidrome!

Quote of the day: "I think notepad on windows 11 is more resource intensive" 😆
"Self-hosting your music isn’t as complicated as it sounds, and the trade-offs are pretty reasonable once you’re set up. You’ll spend some time tagging files and maintaining your server, but in return, you get a library that nobody can alter, remove tracks from, or monitor for profit."

Totally legitimate fear, we've seen too many great open source software become enshittified.
We are actually starting to think about a legal structure to ensure Navidrome remains open-source and community-centric. What other open-source software have you seen do this well that we could learn from?

Finally found a self-hosted app I actually want to use in production!
Navidrome - personal music library streaming server. ( https://www.navidrome.org/ )
Intuitive web UI. Blazing fast file and metadata scanning, even with huge libraries. Best of all: fantastic support for API standards - no lock-in to one company’s client app full of behavior tracking and unwanted new feature nags.
I’m using it with https://client.flooo.club/ on iOS, which is gorgeous and way more enjoyable than Plexamp.
